Shannon Dailey's recipes: Bacon Cheddar Poppers
By From Shannon Dailey-
This is one of my favorite afternoon snacks, and it’s great to bring as an appetizer to a party, too. Bonus-it’s easy!! So many people are trying to eat healthy this time of year and this is something you can snack on a without the guilt!
Side note-this is one of the only ways I like Greek yogurt. I’ve tried it so many ways but so far I only like it cooked! Hope you enjoy!!
